Quiet Power

I know that in Arizona, there are many people who can offer a lot to the present political state of affairs in the area of prison abuse and medical / mental health neglect.

I know that even though you are the quiet citizen you are watching and hesitating to “leap” into the discussion so close to your heart but fear to break your introvert cycle of shyness and speak out loud.

You don’t like publicity and you don’t act spontaneous for it has been shown you act and speak better once you have the time to think and ponder about the matter at hand before you enter the controversy or challenge before you.

However, time is not on your side and many people will die before you make up your minds.

Good decision making is expected from our governor and legislature. Good decision making required input from citizens and constituents that have a stake at the problem at hand. Good decision making comes with confidence and knowledge. It is likely you have both but are hesitant to jump into the discussion for reasons only known to yourself.

You don’t have to be an expert to express your opinion. You don’t have to know anything about what you talk about except for the passion and love of taking care of mankind and those with disabilities.

Your quiet power is most impressive when you come to the point where you realize you can do more for change than clamming up or keeping your mouth shut. Your opinions, feelings, thoughts and passion are just as important as the others and something to brag about when the time allows you to do so in public.

Stand tall and take your quiet power to the limit. Realize that your input matters and that if you had spoken out things might have been different that they are now or have been in the past. The future is yours if you choose to ride along with others and help make decisions that matters. Your thoughtfulness and passion is appreciated and welcomed even though it may be met with stillness.

So don’t let yourself down. Say what you want to say and do what you need to do in efforts to improve your state down and speak out what troubles your heart or your mind.
